[quote=Anonymous]As a mother of a teen girl I wouldn't over plan. Having "down" time and being able to listen to music and do their "own thing" is important to many teens. One or two special events in the week, and time to just "be" with an American family. Pick one or two things you think your entire family would enjoy (or that need tickets) to plan for and then give her some choices. You need some things planned for sure, but too much will get overwhelming and by the time the family arrives she may really resist continuing with the tourist attractions. I second the idea of seeing if there is a neighborhood child you could ask to spend an afternoon with your guest-- going out to lunch and/or shopping. I know my daughter would gladly agree to this for one day -- it wouldn't mean they'd be BFFs for the week, just an afternoon.[/quote]
